Nerding It Up

The “nerd” yes I have already categorized them which falls under the word stereotype, group in the corner. Why are they categorized as a nerd? Not because they have ridiculously high IQ’s or are an introvert and sexually deprived, we have firstly categorized them because of what they are wearing. Think, The Big bang Theory’s Sheldon, contrasting colours, plaid pants worn higher than the norm, clashing prints, suspenders, a shirt promoting the green lantern…. You get the idea, These “nerds” most likely think wearing these items exempt them from the fashion industry but probably don’t realize that designers such as Versus and Dsquared2, latest spring summer collection is cranking up sex appeal with plaid and Prince of Wales style prints as well as nerdy over-sized glasses.
